Hey, I worry about any companion I take to the movies as well. It kind of ruins the movie experience for me when I'm constantly looking out of the corner of my eye to see how she's reacting to various scenes. If she doesn't react at all, I feel so bad. I'm better at going by myself.

And I'm constantly talking myself out of concerts because they are usually in Des Moines and I just don't want to drive down there anymore. I've become a small-town girl, too afraid of the big city.

I hope you do go to that concert. I'm sure you'll have a great time.

Thank you! And so glad to know I'm not alone. I took friends to that Adam Sandler movie "Uncut Gems" and feel guilty to this DAY about how horrible it was! Because it's my fault, you know;). Thanks for reading and commenting, Andrea!

Yoga pants, fuzzy slippers and deer during rut. Three reasons why I don't leave the house in the winter! Wish I could but I am not that social.

But you .... go to the concert. Have a great time and know how cool you will look to others ... confident, assured, in control. You can rock this.

Creeping hermitude! Love the name but hate the affliction. I blame it on the weather. Enjoy the concert!
